On the UK Incoming Passenger Lists, 1878-1960, there is an Isabel Fallowfield, arriving in London, England. I cannot view full details.

Is she on the 1901 Canadian census? Where did she get married? Perhaps she travelled under her married name?

I have an ancestor on one of the Canadian census returns who is shown as arriving in 1867. The only thing is, all of his children were born in Canada prior to that date. We believe he actually arrived in 1857, the year of his marriage, and possibly arrived in America before settling in Ontario, Canada. (I may have found his immigration records, but it states he was Irish, not English.)

Perhaps your Isabel/Isabella did not arrive in 1890?

Could she have travelled as Isabella Atkinson?

You are probably aware, but someone has Robert Atkinson Fallowfield, born 1859 in Westmoreland.

Someone else, Kathy, is rebuilding her database. She last posted in January. She has 71,000 entries, but she does show the family of Richard and Jane and their children, including Isabella A Fallowfield. Same site as listed above.

Hi

I have no idea where Isabella (sp) married but I believe she died in Canada, cannot find her on 1901 Canadian census either.
On 1911 she is down as "Aunt" but I believe she is mother to Thomas (who she is living with)...it all ties in...Thomas was brought up by his Grandmother (Jane Bird) and after the 1881 census Isabella is no where to be found (that I can see). Thomas and Margaret moved to Canada in 1907...leaving my ggrandmother in England!!..would appear to be a habit of this family!!

I never thought about her travelling under Atkinson...there are a number on the list and as I have no access I would be very grateful if anyone has the time to check them out for me.

Yes I did seen the tree on rootsweb but no new info on Isabella...shall keep an eye on it, just in case.

Thanks for your imput and time

Misty: If I remember correctly, the Fallowfields in British Columbia arrived around 1883. Perhaps your Isabella sailed with them?

I cannot see her in 1911. May I ask how you found her? Perhaps if I can view the image, I might be able to find her in 1901 or perhaps in America.

This doesn't help in your search for passenger lists, but adding here for reference:
http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~canbc/vote1898/votef.htm
NAME / RESIDENCE / PROFESSION, TRADE, or CALLING / DISTRICT
Fallowfield, Robert Atkinson, S.W. 1/4 Sec.30, Tp.7, Kensington Prairie, Surrey, Farmer, WDel
Fallowfield, Thomas Atkinson, S.W. 1/4 Sec.25, Tp.1, Kensington Prairie, Surrey, Farmer, WDel

Do not see anything close to the Searey spelling.

You most likely have this, but it shows a photograph of some Fallowfield children:
http://www.members.shaw.ca/j.a.brown/SchoolsTo1900.html

Perhaps your Isabella met up with her brothers(believe it would be brothers) somewhere along the way:
http://genforum.genealogy.com/fallowfield/messages/65.html
"...Robert Fallowfield and brother Thomas (second name Atkinson for their mother's family) came from the English town of Appleby near Manchester in 1881 and after working in Toronto for a while, crossed the country via the US to the west coast and to Victoria, BC. Seeking Land, the young men then went to New Westminster and in the summer of 1883 found their way to where they settled in Surrey, Thomas with 160 acres on the north side of Brown Road west of Coast Meridian and Robert on 160 acres alongside on the east side of Coast Meridian Road...."
